DRGS/DRPS school renovation fund raiser: Saidia kidogo tafadali

 Message from Peter G. Wanjama (Liaison with the Trustees)  09 March 2022.



 

As promised in my last missive we are now ready to receive and disburse funds.

You are all aware of how the family of Dr Ribeiro have enabled us to renovate the school buildings, construct new classrooms and commence building and furnishing the Esther Fausta de Souza Ribeiro Library. It is now up to us, the Alumni, to carry this initiative to completion.

The complex contains an IT and Audio Section besides the conventional Bookshelves. And it is filling these is the challenge presented to us.

Books, Computers and Audio material are all required. In contributing to this we are showing not only our appreciation for what we received in our time but also our vision that OUR School can make to future generations. Kindly share our WhatsApp link with other Alumni that you may know. More information may be gleaned from our website.

Asenteni sana.

He enjoyed the best of two worlds – indoors and outdoors - and even his opponents admired him and spoke in glowing terms of this sportsman. He was a sportsman in the true real sense of the word. Having met and interviewed some of the greatest sportsmen during my career in Kenya and later in Canada one thing that struck me about Celly was that he reminded me of tennis ace Roger Federer - humble and down-to-earth.  Celly, who passed away at the age of 94, still followed every sport closely and would analyze the strengths and weaknesses of a batsman or a bowler.
